	:Colin argued that he not only had to cover the costs of travelling, but that the best way of getting money to Mgr. Pompallier was to entrust it to the missionaries. Meynis had read Pompallier’s letter from Valparaiso and knew, not only that Pompallier was running out of funds, but also that the 8.700 francs that were sent in May to Valparaiso, had not been there at the Bishop’s arrival. ‘You know, Colin could write, what financial state he is in at present’. He urges that it would be a great advantage if the Propagation could make an advance on next year’s allocation, ‘because you know the problem of transferring money, once the missionaries have left’.<ref> Cf. above, p. 55. </ref>		:Colin argued that he not only had to cover the costs of travelling, but that the best way of getting money to Mgr.

	:Fr. Caret returned from Rome during Lent and met with Fr. Colin.<ref> Cf. above, pp. 69. </ref> At that moment Caret was probably already booked to leave from Bordeaux in May and Colin asked him to arrange for the Marists to travel with him as far as Valparaiso. Not unlikely Caret convinced Colin that, as nobody knew for sure where Pompallier and his missionaries had gone to, Valparaiso was as good a place to find out as any. Unfortunately, the ship on which he was to travel turned out to be fully booked. Caret sailed from Bordeaux in May 1838 with ~~several companions, among whom~~ twelve Sisters of the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts.<ref> CS, doc. 35. Information thanks to Jean Louis Schuester, SSCC Archives, Rome. </ref>		:Fr. Caret returned from Rome during Lent and met with Fr.

	:Shortly after writing to Fransoni, Colin received Pompallier’s letter from Tahiti.<ref> [[Girard0021\|LRO, doc. 21]]. Dated 2 October 1837, it reached Colin after he wrote to Fransoni but before the letter to Meynis of 8 June 1838. CS, doc. 37 [1]. Eight months! </ref> As far as there at least, nothing had gone wrong. The Bishop’s enthusiastic descriptions of the newly converted Gambier Islands were a source of joy. But as to further information the letter was a disappointment. If anything it added to the confusion. Colin now learned that, while in Tahiti, Pompallier had also given up hope of doing anything in Hawaii. He was now (i.e., eight months earlier!) looking again at Tonga, Samoa, Fiji and even New Zealand, without, as yet, losing sight of Micronesia. On the other hand, instead of Honolulu, Sydney was again in the picture as a possible base. In fact, the letter left it all very open. Pompallier now preferred the eastern route, around the Cape of Good Hope and Australia, without excluding the western one around Cape Horn. He heaped praise on Moerenhout in Tahiti and his readiness to help the missionaries who might still come his way.<ref> [[Girard0021\|LRO, doc. 21]] [11 – 15]. </ref>		:Shortly after writing to Fransoni, Colin received Pompallier’s letter from Tahiti.<ref> [[Girard0021\|LRO, doc. 21]].

	:When, end May 1838, Colin received Pompallier’s letter of October 1837 from Tahiti, he forwarded it to Mr. Meynis to support his application. On 8 June he wrote again. The Propagation would have preferred waiting with the subsidy until the end of the financial year, but Colin urged that without the advance on the allowance for 1838 it would be difficult to get the missionaries to New Zealand.<ref> CS, doc. 37. </ref>		:When, at the end of May 1838, Colin received Pompallier’s letter of October 1837 from Tahiti, he forwarded it to Mr. Meynis to support his application.
